This propaganda poster entitled "How the Hun Hates!" depicts the treatment of English fishermen by the "Hun". Having been tarnished as "mine layers", the North Sea fishermen had the hair shaved off of one side of their heads and faces, and were then exposed to the ridicule of the German public. The text finishes with the appeal: "British Sailors! Look! Read! and Remember!"
